Description
Magazines were once the authors of culture and taste, shaping intelligence and policy for a century. From their origins in London to their rise as creators of a new media aesthetic and mass culture, magazines played a significant role in shaping modern society. Their story is one of transformation, from opulent days in advertising-supported conglomerates to their eventual fall at the hands of the internet. This tale is told through the experience of a magazine founder who navigated the challenges of the digital age, including the creation of Entertainment Weekly and other notable publications. Published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic, this book offers a unique perspective on the history and significance of magazines in modern culture.
